For sure not everyone knows "BALIG-ANG". Because just this week we`re on the shuttle, when I mention it, then they laugh and tease me, if I belong on some tribe like in the AMAYA teleserye.

Actually, it`s Lipote (Syzygium curranii) a fruit species. But often called by the locals as BALIG-ANG OR IGOT. It`s a native fruit here in the Philippines, and it is more common in my own province, Bicol. This is a tree bearing fruit, the tree is almost same size with the Pili and Mango tree. But, Balig-ang fruit is in cluster, in small round shape, at first it was white in color and it turns to dark purple when already ripe.

The best way eating Balig-ang is, put it on a tupperware add some salt and sugar, then shake it, until juice extracted blended with the salt and sugar, and it`s called "NILUNG-GONG". Weird right?.... hahahah

ayuuun. duhat. hehe. i was trying to figure out what fruit is the equivalent of balig-ang in tagalog. i used to love eating that when i was a kid. i don't see duhat for sale anymore. i wonder why. hmm...
